Have you seen any power specs on it anywhere?


I have long thought it would be a good way to keep pets cool that way, with a cooled dog crate and very small AC unit.

1400 BTU's for $300, this is much more reasonable than that recent post of a Zero Breeze AC unit for $900 for 1100 BTU's ($650 without the battery).

Much more reasonable price, would be interested to know how well it works.

Here are some specs on the hounditioner.

There are some immediate problems. It requires 120 volt AC at 350 watts. Its EER is 4, even without considering inverter losses when operating on battery power.

The Zero Breeze is the small type of A/C your pet cooler idea needs. If its reliability proves itself, it would be a dependable and efficient way to implement your idea, as it only requires 12 volts DC at about 140 watts. Not a big battery drain over a few hours.
